#1247 moderation not working in 2.1.5

[jason]

A number of users are setup in our mailman version with unchecked "mod" flags in the management of all users via the web.

These users however are moderated when they send to the list. One of the users in the list happens to be listed as a list moderator.

I am unable to find if this is a bug, or just something incomplete in our setup.

Thanks.

Listing an address as moderator has nothing to do with the status of that address as a list member or it's ability to post. The ONLY thing it does is cause list-owner mail and certain notifications to be sent to that address.

For posts from unmoderated members being held, it would be better to discuss this on the mailman-users@python.org list <http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users> before filing a bug report, but the posts are probably being held for some other reason. You can see this reason in Mailman's vette log or in the admindb interface or in the notice to the moderator. What is it.
